That has been my experience as well. I found it mostly better and more
agreeable to just change what I ate, than to try to make dairy-free versions
of dishes where dairy is a prime component.

We're big fans of the Cuties! Even those who can have regular ice cream like
the Tofutti Cuties.

There was an excellent brand of soy yogurt we had in Toronto once (sorry, I
forget the name) but all of the American soy yogurts are indeed yucky.

I stopped having cold cereals and went with dairy-free varieties of instant
oatmeal.
I did come up with a workable recipe for a dairy-free rice pudding once when
I had a craving. Not shockingly, rice milk works well with that. :)
